description
Vim script to help moving around in larger Python source files. It displays current class, method or function the cursor is placed in in the status line for every python file. It's more clever than Yegappan Lakshmanan's taglist.vim because it takes into account indetation and comments to determine what tag the cursor is placed in and from version 0.80 doesn't need exuberant ctags utility.
 
install details
1. Make sure your Vim has python feature on (+python). If not, you will need to recompile it with --with-pythoninterp option to the configure script
2. Copy script pythonhelper.vim to the $HOME/.vim/plugin directory
3. Run Vim and open any python file.

pythonhelper.vim 0.80 18-Oct-2002 6.0 Michal Vitecek - removed the dependency on exuberant ctags which parsed the python source code wrongly anyways. From now on only VIM with python support is needed. This might greatly help windoze users.
pythonhelper.vim 0.72 03-Oct-2002 6.0 Michal Vitecek - fixed problem with parsing ctags output on python files that use tabs
- when there is a syntax error in the file and ctags parses it incorrectly a warning is displayed in the command line
pythonhelper.vim 0.71 02-Oct-2002 6.0 Michal Vitecek - fixed problem with undefined window-bound variable w:PHStatusLine when a window has been split into two.
- unbound event BufWinEnter because it's not needed because of the above change now
pythonhelper.vim 0.7 02-Oct-2002 6.0 Michal Vitecek Initial upload
